The tender, titled "Award of RoS: SG IT Temporary and Interim Staff Direct Award - Domain Architect - Data product & ...," falls under the services industry category, specifically supply services of personnel including temporary staff, as per CPV classification 79620000. The procurement method is a direct award, leveraging a collaborative framework agreement to engage Venesky Brown Ltd, located in Edinburgh, as the supplier. This contract has a duration of 12 months with potential extensions up to an additional 12 months, and a rate guidance of £630 per day. Hybrid working is stipulated, with operations confined to the UK. Award decisions are based on an 80% quality and 20% price criterion, with the contract signed on the 10th of July 2025.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in IT and temporary staffing services, particularly those adept at providing domain architects with a focus on data products. Companies that excel in delivering high-quality personnel suitable for hybrid working environments within the UK will find this contract beneficial for growth. Opportunities for future engagement exist, given potential contract extensions and a favourable position if the incumbent requirements, such as BPSS security checks, are already up to date. The direct award process minimises competition, suggesting that achieving a top rank in government framework agreements can be advantageous for similar tenders.
